Description:
Hi, Here's a fantastic and beautiful Bass. I read on line that only 300 of these were made. Solid Rosewood back and sides, Rosewood veneer headstock on a Mahogany Neck. AAA Western Cedar solid wood top. Abalone everywhere! The onlt real drawback on this Bass is,...that the Fishman pre-amp went belly up. (That was before I owned this Bass.) The previous owner had it removed and a piece of curly Bubinga wood placed on the opening. This bass, however, still sounds incredible plugged in. I'm getting married soon, or I'd just fix it myself. The Case for this is amazing, worth a LOT...and I love the red thread they used on the outside. It comes stock with a shoulder strap as well. Classy touches. The Truss system on this bass is really cool. Here's some info I found online about this bass: "Breedlove goes back to its bass roots.
